Description

The SHOW DELETED command displays the amount of unreclaimed message space in the currently open mail file. If no mail file is currently open when the command is issued, the default mail file is opened. If the size of the space exceeds 32,767 bytes, then the next PURGE command or automatic wastebasket purge will reclaim the space. Alternatively, you may use the PURGE/RECLAIM command to explicitly request that this space be reclaimed.

Examples

In the following example, the PURGE/RECLAIM/STATISTICS command is used to delete the messages from the wastebasket folder. The amount of deleted message space before and after the purge operation is displayed with the SHOW DELETED command.
